The Brim Reaper by Diane Vallere

When an over-the-top collection of vintage Hollywood costumes comes to Samantha Kidd’s hometown, it brings a hat box full of hype. Close friend Eddie is in charge of the exhibit but when hype turns to homicide, he turns to Samantha for help. Brimming with good intentions, she loops in the cops, but after one too many cloche calls, she’s soon in over her head. If she can tear the lid off the investigation, it might mean a feather in her fedora. And if she can’t? She might get capped.

Diane Vallere is living proof that you can redesign your
life with a little know how and a lot of determination! After close to two
decades working for a top luxury retailer, she traded fashion accessories for
accessories to murder, now juggling three different mystery series: Style
& Error, featuring former fashion buyer Samantha Kidd; Mad for Mod,
featuring Doris Day-loving interior decorator Madison Night; and the upcoming
Material Witness series, featuring Polyester Monroe and the fabric shop she
inherited. Diane started her own detective agency at age ten and has
maintained a passion for shoes, clues, and clothes ever since. Find her at http://www.dianevallere.com/.
